Mr. Bob Green, Club Treasurer, presents a cheque for US$416.25 to
Ms. Linda Lake, coordinator of the 2001 Cultural Education Festival.
This represents the cash balance in the club's bank account, representing
the funds left over from fees after last summer's computer training
programs for adults and children.
The Anguilla Library Club has declared victory in its goal of making Anguilla
aware of computers and comfortable with them, and has decided to
shut down. Computer education is now well established in the schools
and PCs are common at home. Other grass-roots organizations are
springing up in the villages to continue community computer education.
You can still email info@computerclub..ai
if you wish to assist with these efforts, and we will put you in touch
with the volunteers.
Professor Gaetano Di Palo, who taught
our classes for the last several years and is remembered most fondly
by his students, hopes to return to Anguilla again for summer 2001 and
teach another course using the computer lab that the club has donated
to the high school.
The club founders want to say how proud they are of the many young people
who learned to use a computer at the club. Many have gone on to higher
education, jobs using computers, and to show other people what they have
learned (including their elders!).

Women's Class for Beginners
The computer club does it again. Professor Gaetano DiPalo of Italy returned to Anguilla in July 1999 to operate another summer program in computer skills. He was assisted by another volunteer, Randy Hannan, and we had local helpers too who are back in Anguilla on summer college break: Dawnette Bryan and Rochelle Carty.
This year we offered a session for children age 11 and under (US$60), and another session for adults and teens (anyone 12 or older can register, cost $120). At the completion of the summer, each participant received a certificate of achievement and a Boot Camp T-shirt.
